If someone waits for a day to confirm the end of their menses, do they need to make up the missed prayer if they find out their menses ended before that day? Is there any sin for the missed prayer in this situation?

My husband has issued divorce to me on two separate occasions while I was menstruating. He believes that these divorces are not considered valid, while I believe they are. What is the ruling on this matter?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'ala

The divorce would not be valid if that was the case, and the best thing to do is for you both to refer to a qualified scholar for marriage counselling, and if no solution can be made and there is no hope for reconciliation, then husband can inform the qualified scholar and conduct the divorce in the correct way, meeting all the valid requirements, and give a document for it as well.

How should one determine when to perform Ghusl if their menstrual period stops and starts towards the end, and they are not sure if it has fully ended? Is it permissible to wait a day or two before doing Ghusl to be sure?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

You need to be sure that the menstruation cycle has ended and there is no blood at all, then perform Ghusl of Haydh. If you doubt that the menstruation might not finished yet, you need to wait and check till you become sure that menstruation has really ended.

Minimum period of menstruation is three days continuously and maximum period of menstruation is ten continuous days. Bleeding after ten days is not menstruation but Estihadha during which SALAH is obligatory with rules of Wudhu or Ghusl.
